Hong Kong Police Arrests US Lawyer for Breaching National Security Law during Territorywide Crackdown

//John Clancey, a US solicitor with law firm Ho Tse Wai and Partners that is known for taking on human rights cases, was arrested by the Hong Kong Police under the national security law in Hong Kong on January 6, 2021.

A US citizen, Clancey could potentially be the first foreign citizen who does not also hold a Hong Kong passport to be arrested under the national security law.

The US Consulate in Hong Kong would not comment on the arrests. Clancey's detention could pose a major diplomatic issue for Washington, amid an already tense relationship with China.//
